Some people get a massage because it “feels good.” Others come to “feel better.” Still others come because they want to be better. They want to improve. They want to get well.
Helping clients get better and heal is what this class is about.
In this class you will learn:
•Concepts and techniques to help people move from a life of pain to a life of comfort, efficient movement, self-awareness, and autonomy.
•The latest neuroscience about chronic pain, the different “types” of chronic pain, and which therapies prove most effective.
•How to build a practical model for identifying and treating the complexities of chronic pain.
•How to rewire the neuro-circuitry that causes chronic pain
•How somatic education changes inefficient patterns of dysfunction.
•How to use awareness-based touch and movement to awaken proprioceptive centers and stimulate new neurological activity.
•How to bring your clients into a healthier relationship with their own healing.
Emphasis in this class will be placed on the kinetic chain of the spine, ribs, and extremities. We will explore how to palpate and assess the relative health of these complex relationships. You will learn how the curves and spirals of the spine affect each other and how areas of dysfunction appear and feel. All of this will be used to create easier movement throughout the length of the skeleton.
I invite you to join us in this training to become a professional in Transforming Chronic Pain. You will not be disappointed!
***Please wear clothing that doesn’t restrict movement and bring a mat or blanket for movement explorations on the floor.
